Hearing the system's alert, both Shui Se Qiang Wei and Huo Wu were stunned.
A Legendary Quest!
And a main storyline quest at that, one that could influence the history of the Divine Realm. The rewards were bound to be incredibly generous.
They heard that the minimum reward for an Epic Quest was an Epic item or something of equivalent value. A Legendary Quest meant that upon completion, you could obtain a Legendary item.
Epic items were already rare enough, let alone Legendary ones. Such an item could completely serve as a symbol for a guild.
However, when they thought about having to seal this Bottomless Abyss, a deep sense of despair washed over them...
"The Return Scroll is usable now. Let's leave this place," said Shi Feng. He remembered the new expansion, the Great Calamity, all too well. Ever since it began, the wild monsters in the entire Divine Realm had become restless. Small towns, in particular, would suffer beast attacks from time to time, plunging entire towns into chaos.
In Shi Feng's memory, even some weak frontier towns had been overrun by magical beasts, becoming monster towns.
The biggest change came at night. The number of wild beasts was far greater than before, and among them were beasts corrupted by the Bottomless Abyss. These beasts would evolve into magical beasts, and the weakest magical beasts were Tier 1 creatures. This meant that unless players advanced to the official first-tier class, it would be very difficult for them to deal with these magical beasts, and they could even be killed.
It would be very hard for players to level up and farm monsters at night.
In contrast to the shock felt by Shui Se Qiang Wei, Huo Wu, and the others, the entire Star Moon Kingdom was abuzz.
Everyone was incredibly excited.
Because the changes brought by the Great Calamity expansion had already been outlined on the official website: in the future, small towns would be attacked by magical beasts, and the towns would issue defense quests. As long as you could protect the town, you could receive generous rewards—such as Mythril-rank weapons and equipment—as well as city reputation.
This was a surefire way for ordinary players to level up quickly. Ordinary players were ecstatic.
White River City instantly became deserted, as everyone rushed to the small towns, hoping to wait for a magical beast attack while also leveling up by killing monsters.
If you got lucky and encountered an attack, it would be a huge win.
"Guild Leader, perhaps we should also send some people to the small towns to wait for the beast attacks," suggested Shui Se Qiang Wei with a slight frown, looking at the empty White River City.
Right now, other guildies were busy pushing the three major dungeons and had no time to care about beast attacks. This was a great opportunity for their Zero Wing Guild.
"We won't get involved in the beast attacks. We should focus on leveling up instead. Level twenty is the time for our guild to make a name for itself," Shi Feng said with a smile, shaking his head.
Shi Feng had experienced many beast attacks back then, but the rewards weren't that easy to get. Since the weakest magical beasts were Tier 1 and over level 30—Shi Feng had even seen a Tier 3 beast during one attack—going to defend a small town now was simply courting death.
Naturally, he wouldn't let the guild members go to their deaths for nothing.
It could be said that the small towns were very dangerous right now. Encountering a beast attack wasn't good luck; it was a death sentence.
The safest place right now was only the cities. Cities generally had high-level NPCs guarding them, and White River City in particular had three Tier 4 NPCs. Magical beasts wouldn't dare approach a city recklessly.
"No. If the guild doesn't show some activity now, I'm afraid many of the remaining members will leave," said Shui Se Qiang Wei, completely unable to understand what Shi Feng was thinking.
